About

Science For Change (SFC) is a research and innovation organisation based in Barcelona. We design and implement participatory research, citizen science, and co-creation processes that connect research, society, and decision-making.

SFC has extensive experience in Horizon Europe and EU-funded projects, acting as coordinator or partner in Research & Innovation Actions (RIA), Coordination and Support Actions (CSA), and mission-oriented initiatives. Our work focuses on strengthening the social and participatory dimensions of research by combining scientific rigor with inclusive, context-sensitive engagement strategies.

Our core areas of expertise include:

• Citizen science and participatory research, including the integration of citizen-generated data into research and innovation processes

• Co-design, stakeholder engagement, and governance, working with cities, communities, policymakers, and civil society actors

• Social sciences support for R&I projects, including ethics, inclusion, reflexivity, and responsible research and innovation (RRI) approaches

• Science communication, capacity building, and training, including competency frameworks, professional education programmes, and methodological guidance

Within consortia, SFC typically contributes to:

• Design and implementation of participatory methodologies, engagement strategies, and co-creation processes

• Support to social science–led work packages, including stakeholder mapping, engagement activities, qualitative research, and ethical considerations

• Capacity building and knowledge transfer, through trainings, academies, toolkits, and guidelines

• Dissemination, communication, and exploitation activities, grounded in stakeholder needs and real-world contexts
